Could I Still Be Pregnant.
Posted: 01-22-07 00:59am

Hello! My name is amber. I am 20 years old and I have a seven month old little boy. After I had my son my periods were at the most 42 days apart. Before my pregnancy they were on the same day of every month for pretty much ever since I started! In december I didnt have a period, but then added it up and I shouldnt have started til' the seventh of jan! Well it came and past and I never started. I went to my obgyn and he gave me a preg test and it was neg. He said that they are sensitve and that I wasnt pregnant. If I didnt start in two months to come back. He didnt give me a chance to tell him all of my symptoms or anything..He was in a rush. I then went to the health department a week later and the test was also neg. She said the same thing and she said that I should go see another obgy or the same one and get blood test taken she said it might be a hormonal imbalance. I still have all the symptoms of being pregnant and I stay sick to my stomach and it hurts all the time! I still havent started and havent spotted or anything. I feel like im going to start but never do, as I did before! I have head-aches, back-aches, sickness to my stomach, my boobs are leaking! (after I had my son the milk never came in and I never had a problem with leaking and now all the sudden they do), I am tired all the time! I want to know if its possible that I am pregnant. The woman at the health department said that all the blood test and stuff cost a lot of money and I dont have insurance. My boyfriend and I plan on getting married in march so if there isnt a possibilty that im pregnant then i'll wait to be on his insurance but if theres a chance then I really need to know so I can get to the doctor! I just wanted to know if any other women have ever had this happen to them! Any comments would be nice, other than the ones that say just go to the doctor and stop writing about it-- if I had the darn money I would! I dont want to go and waste money I really dont have when there isnt really a reason too!
Thanks alot ladies
amber

With two pregnancy tests coming back negative it sounds like to me that there could be something else going on. Are you on any type of birth control at this point and time? Or did you nurse at all after having your baby?

You say your baby is 7 months old. Has your period been irregular for only the last 2 months? We are not doctors on this sight but maybe we can lead you in the right direction to see what can be done but for the most part the gals on this sight are going to suggest getting into see a doctor. But hopefully some of us on this sight can possibly help you

It sounds hormonal. Hormones can cause your breast problems. And they can cause a lot of the symptoms you have.

Your doctor is going to give you a prescription for a hormone to help your period start. I'm pretty confident you are not pregnant if you have had 2 pregnancy tests (and probably more home tests at home) that are all negative.

Go back to your doctor, tell him you have not started your period and you are getting married in march and need things to be squared away. He should help you at that point.

Always stand up for yourself at the doctor's office, no one will do it for you. Wink
